Denver/Boulder Aviation Discussion

.AVIATION /18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday/...
Issued at 1154 AM MDT Tue May 28 2024
VFR conditions continue through the TAF period. Scattered showers
and storms are possible this afternoon mainly between 22Z-01Z.
Conditions are favorable for thunderstorms arriving to KAPA but
there is a low chance of an isolated storm for KBJC and KDEN.
Therefore, keeping VCSH for KBJC and KDEN. Winds will shift from
northeast to southeast for KAPA and KDEN; For KBJC, showers could
shift winds southwest. By 02Z, showers and storms should exit all
terminals. Winds remain between 10-15kts for all sites until 10Z
as a low level jet sets up along the CO/Kansas border. Drainage
winds are possible by 11-12Z.

Showers and thunderstorms developing over the mountains will
drift off into the adjacent lower elevations during the late
afternoon and evening. VCSH/VCTS will be possible at all three
terminals, though coverage looks too isolated to put into the
TAFs just yet, though will time some gusty outflow winds into
all three terminals in the afternoon. If VCTS does impact the
terminals, then localized erratic gusts to 40 kts will be
possible. Moisture will increase with easterly winds overnight
at KCOS and KPUB. Have delayed the onset of stratus at KCOS
until 10z, as recent models have backed off on this scenario
some. Have kept conditions MVFR for now, but it is possible that
a stronger moisture surge originating from yet to form
thunderstorms to the east could result in a few hours of IFR
conditions at KCOS during the early morning hours. -KT

.AVIATION...KSLC...Predominantly VFR conditions expected through the
period with generally light winds following typical daily trends.
Afternoon cumulus development over the Oquirrhs will likely
eventually lead to a thunderstorm or two with bases at or above 10k
feet AGL moving northeastward into the Salt Lake Valley. Such storms
will have 50% chance of gusty outflow winds reaching the terminal
from about 21Z-0Z, though with only a 10-20% chance of reaching the
terminal vicinity itself. Showers/thunderstorms are possible again
tomorrow (30% chance).
.REST OF UTAH AND SOUTHWEST WYOMING...Isolated showers/thunderstorms
are expected this afternoon, generally east of I-15 and north I-70,
tracking northeastward. Such storms will be capable of gusty winds.
Outside of this, VFR conditions and light diurnal wind variations
are forecast today and tonight.

VFR conditions will prevail through today. There will be some
isolated convection across southwestern Wyoming this afternoon, but
low confidence on terminal impacts precludes mentioning this at any
of KRKS, KBPI, and KPNA. A leading shortwave from an approaching
trough will lead to some additional shower development after 06Z
tonight, moving northeast overnight. Again, with low confidence on
impacts we will not mention in TAFs for now. Better confidence
exists for shower and thunderstorm development across western
Wyoming late Wednesday morning; this activity will be introduced in
the next TAF period.
Please see the Aviation Weather Center and/or CWSU ZDV and ZLC for
the latest information on smoke, icing, and turbulence forecasts.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms possible around southeast
Wyoming terminals later this afternoon and evening. With the dry low-
levels, thunderstorms will be high-based with the potential to
produce gusty and erratic winds. Storm coverage will decrease this
evening. Later tonight, a low-level jet will develop over the
Nebraska panhandle leading to gusty winds. Gusts up to 30 kts will
be possible at western Nebraska terminals. Winds will ease
Wednesday morning as the jet erodes.

Shra and tsra is expected to redevelop this afternoon across the entire
region. Will include vcts and cb groups in the TAFs for now. Some
gr and 40-50 kt outflows cannot be ruled out if the storms get strong/severe
enough. Low VFR to even MVFR cigs will be possible in the morning
as residual cloud cover and moisture lingers across the terminals.
Winds outside storms will be your typical SE/S winds 10-20 kt.

The main forecast issue for the next 24 hours will be the
potential for thunderstorms at all TAF sites later this afternoon
into this evening. These thunderstorms may produce large hail and
strong downdrafts with erratic winds at the surface. Have
attempted to time the storms based on latest forecasts, but better
clarity should exist once storms develop. Amendments will likely
be needed. Otherwise, MVFR ceilings are possible later tonight
into early tomorrow morning.

Low level moisture in far eastern New Mexico today will lead to
scattered shower and thunderstorm development this afternoon. This
activity. A few storms could turn severe, particularly in the far
northeast plains and along the Texas border where large hail and
damaging winds are the main threats to aviation. Elsewhere, dry
conditions with generally light to moderate breezes are forecast.
By tonight, rain cooled air from showers and thunderstorms in
eastern NM and west TX is forecast to surge westward and result in
isolated showers or thunderstorms and widespread MVFR to IFR
ceilings mainly north of I-40 late tonight. Developing southwest
winds are forecast to begin scouring out the Gulf moisture by late
morning Wednesday.
